Chapter 25 Green Tea is Suitable for a Cold Shen Mu had composed himself completely by the time he returned to the ward with the thermos. He placed the thermos back on the bedside table and was about to organize the clothes he had brought when his mother suddenly grabbed his wrist. “Xiao Mu,” his mother leaned closer, her voice very low, “Did you smoke?” “No,” Shen Mu avoided her gaze, “Someone else was smoking, and the smell clung to me.” “Come out with me, son.” His mother pulled…-

Chapter 24 Stolen Shen Mu bought breakfast for his parents in the morning, and only left after confirming there was nothing urgent that needed immediate attention. He couldn't bring lunch to his brother today, so he bought a Black Forest cake on the way. The Security Guard was surprised to see him today and asked very genuinely about his father’s condition. Shen Mu said his father was fine, just exhausted, and would be discharged after two days of rest. The Security Guard sighed, opened the…

Chapter 23 The Snail The weather was gradually cooling down, and Jiang Chengxuan resumed his morning exercise routine, attempting to bring Shen Mu along. Shen Mu, good-natured as he was, didn't have any morning temper when woken up and followed him for two days. However, the process was far from pleasant; he ran with a look of utter despair, yawning constantly, enduring purely out of a desire not to spoil the fun. By the third day, Shen Mu found it difficult to get up. He stayed curled up under the…

Chapter 22: Ah Xuan The next morning, Shen Mu woke up to a faint, almost imperceptible smell of scorching, mixed with a hint of cloyingly sweet red bean fragrance. Shen Mu frowned, threw off the covers, and got out of bed. The closer he got to the kitchen, the stronger the smell became. Jiang Chengxuan stood in front of the stove, somewhat flustered, using a spatula to deal with several red bean pancakes in the frying pan that were clearly too dark in color. On the counter beside him were bowls and…

Chapter 21 "Good night." Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Mu walked side-by-side toward the cafeteria. After a few steps, Shen Mu suddenly let out an "Ah," stopped, and pulled his phone out of his pocket to look at the screen. "What is it?" Jiang Chengxuan asked. "I almost forgot," Shen Mu turned off the screen. "The crew has a temporary Script Workshop this afternoon. I need to get there a little early, so I might have to eat lunch quickly." Jiang Chengxuan looked at him: "Is it urgent? Do you need to go now?…

Chapter 20: Are there Red Bean Cakes? Shen Mu’s lips seemed to curve slightly when he heard this. He put down his spoon. “Doctor Jiang, were you always this direct when inviting people to live with you?” “I already told you,” Jiang Chengxuan sighed, “I’ve never liked anyone else, only you. Where would ‘always’ come from? Besides, the non-stop renovations next door to your place are affecting your sleep, and lack of sleep affects your physical and mental health. Seriously, won't you…

Jiang Chengxuan was a busy man, and they usually didn't have much interaction. He had come by once when they were filming the CPR scene, correcting the technique: the compression depth needed to be at least 5 centimeters, and the frequency 100–120 beats per minute. His tone was official and professional. Shen Mu watched him from the side, thinking that he was indeed the same Jiang Chengxuan with OCD. Being a Medical Consultant didn't require much of his time, so after demonstrating and pointing out a…

“Lin Wei, how are you feeling today?” Lin Wei was a patient he had admitted a few days ago. The young woman was only in her twenties, suffering from a craniopharyngioma that had recurred after surgery several years prior. Lin Wei still refused to speak. Lin Wei’s mother choked up, saying, “Doctor Jiang, Xiao Wei is still like this. She hasn’t opened her mouth to say a word in days. We have to coax her for ages just to eat or drink, and she only reluctantly swallows a little when we feed it to…

Chapter 18 You Don't Need to Hold Up for Anyone Shen Mu was startled and whispered, "No, Auntie, we are Old Classmates from college." Jiang Chengxuan’s mother let out a thoughtful "Oh" and smiled. "College classmates, is that right?" It seemed he hadn't managed to pursue him yet. No wonder he was reluctant to say anything. Jiang Chengxuan’s mother opened the refrigerator and placed the ingredients she was holding inside one by one. The sound of the door opening came from the entryway. Jiang…

Chapter 17 “Boyfriend, is that you?” Shen Mu suffered from insomnia for almost the entire night, only falling asleep near dawn. He didn't sleep long before being woken up by the percussive hammering coming from next door. Shen Mu sat up and rubbed his hair irritably, his mind a mess. Everything that happened last night played uncontrollably on repeat in his head, every detail frighteningly clear. Jiang Chengxuan had actually kissed him, and he himself hadn't seemed to resist. He instinctively…
